HARRY KANE
Tottenham Hotspurโs unexpected elimination from the FA Cup means that Antonio Conteโs side can not only offer us players who โdoubleโ in Gameweek 29 but also assets who are unaffected by the blanks in Gameweek 30.
For those looking further ahead, Spurs will also have another Double Gameweek to come between now and the end of the season.
And the remaining fixtures themselves are very decent, with nine of their last 13 games of 2021/22 against teams currently ranked 10th or below in the Premier League table.
Harry Kane (ยฃ12.3m) has nine attacking returns in 11 matches from Gameweek 18 onwards, averaging 5.7 points per start in the process, whilst no player can beat his expected goal involvement (xGI) figure in that time:

ARMANDO BROJA / CHE ADAMS
Southamptonโs FA Cup victory over West Ham United earlier this week means that they now face a blank in Gameweek 30, although the immediate fixtures remain good, as they face four bottom-half sides in quick succession.
The long-term schedule is also decent, with some favourable fixtures running through till Gameweek 36.
Che Adams (ยฃ7.0m) has produced attacking returns in each of his last four matches, averaging 4.7 points per start this season.
He has certainly overshadowed his attacking colleague Armando Broja (ยฃ5.5m) of late, but it is worth noting that the Chelsea loanee has narrowly outshot Adams over the same period by 13-12.
However, the better chances have fallen to the Scottish international, who has racked up four big chances in that time:
